    I never stopped. And I damn well won’t be anytime soon.

    A large enough proportion of the populace has deemed it their God Given Right to infect anyone and everyone under the doctrine of “It’s Just the Flu, Bro”.

      for real. During covid, I didn’t get sick once, and that was heavenly cause when I get sick, it runs for weeks and get really really bad. I thought that wearing masks when sick would be the norm now, but whatever

        I foolishly had dental work done in 2023. LONG overdue.

        The tech doing my x-rays had an n95, full face shield and gloves. The idiot dentist starts poking in my mouth with NO gloves and is completely unmasked.

        The 3 years of being hyper cautious, getting every damned booster and treating every stranger as a plague vector down the drain. Thankfully only a week of what felt like one of the worst bouts of influenza I’ve had.

        Still getting yearly boosters, still masking and still assuming that every one I run into in public is on a holy crusade to spread mega measles or the like.
